"All of us know that the heart of the matter is cross-border terrorism perpetrated on India, including Jammu and Kashmir". Beijing seeks to claim 495 square kilometers in eastern Bhutan and 286 square km in the western sector, which includes the Doklam Plateau and even offered to swap territory to gain access to the Doklam Plateau.
